fully realistic, and that is the highest
praise that could be bestowed. We
have seen Nine. Thierry and Sara
Bernhardt perform this role. The
former was a grand actress but
she invested "Camille" with q
false glamour Of morality; whilst
Bernhardt went to the other extreme
and made Camille" loose type of the
Partisan demi-moRde. Miss Morris
never forgets that she is representing a
woman who has placed an insuperable
barrier between herself and society; but
she infuses into the character dignity
and sentiment which Iredeems it out Of
the fallen class to which it belongs. If
there be any great moral lesson in Ca
mile, it is in the shape of q warning, to
avoid the glare and glitter of vice; for
retribution meets her at every step, un-
til it at last eliminates in one of the most
narrowing scenes Of supreme suffering
depicted in the whole range of the
drama. At the same time it is protest
against the tyranny of society-against
itsinexorable condemn alton and hardness
of heart. Without mercy, without pity,
its rigors first force the friendless and
helpless into straits where temptation
triumphs over weakness, and then it
places upon them the indelible mark
which forever deprives them from hope
and consigns them to an irretrievable life
of shame. 1t makes them what they are,
and then crushes them. Miss Morris
brings ont these characteristics Of the

THE NATION OF LONDON.
BY PHILIP GILBERT HAMERToN.

There is the great nation OF London,
more populous than Scotland, Holland,
or Switzerland, and destined to surpass
Belgium in population before the end of
the century. In London the English
character has certainly undergone a
great modification. A provincial, coming
to London, is still geographically in En-
gland, but otherwise he hardly knows
where he is. At first he does not belong
to the place at all; after some experience
of it he finds out whether he belongs to
London naturally or not,-that is to say,
whether there is that In him which may
develop into harmony with the large
intellectual atmosphere of the place.
Physically, London may be as big as
Loeb Lomond; socially and intellectu-
ally, it is larger than Russia, and may
we'll form a sort of state within the state
The English character in London has be-
come more open, more tolerant, better
able to understand variety of opinion, and
much more ready to appreciate talent and
welcome thought of all kinds. The ma
ton of London is essentially modern and
democratic, not caring who your grand
mother may have been, if only you your
self we're to its taste; but at the same
time it does not desire to be coarse and
unedacated democracy; it values culture
and taste far too highly to sacrifice them
to low equality. In word, London
clings to its own standard OF civilization.
IL you come up to that standard, if you
have refinement and just money enough
for housekeeping of unpretendlng ele-
gance, You may be an infdel and radi-
cal, and London will not disown you,
London will not cast you out into the
cold.
Although London happens by chance
to be situated on an island, it is not more
insular than Paris. The nation of Lon
don is of all nations the most cosmopoli-
tan, the most alive to what is passing
everywhere upon earth. 1t seems there
IS if one were not living SO much the life
of one nation as the worlds life. You
speak OF some outlandish place at Lon
don dinner-table, and are never surprised
if somebody present quietly gives de-
scription of it from personal knowledge
The thoughts and actions of all mankind
settle themselves into more just proper
tions in London than anywere else. In
Paris, with all its brightness and intelli-
gence, you are constantly compelled to re.
collect that you are in France, as in Edin-
burgh that you are in Scotland. In Paris
you are uncomfortably near to the Ger.
man colossus, and it seems almost as if the
cannon at Metz could send bomb shells to
Notre Dame. In London one has more
the feeling that the ocean telegraphs con
verge there, and that steamers are arriy-
ing daily from all parts OF the world
Mag Atlantic.

The rules of the order have remained
unchanged since that dark period of the
middle ages. To one man all the mem.
bers are known, and to him alone. Every
resident of Florence who is COLI petent to
become a member feels it his bounden
duty to join, and make application to the
head of the order. He assumes the garb
and cowl, and for the prescribed length
of time is lost to the world, family and
friends among the gloomy halls of the
Misericordia or amidst the homes of the
city's poor. Not word passes the lips
of one of the brotherhood to others. A
man in the order may serve next to his
brother for months and not be cognizant.
A man may bear on his shoulders dying
friend and yet conceal his identity. He
may even stand at the bedside of rela-
tive, and by the laws which bind the or
ganization be still unknown and unknow-
ing.
There were at one time quite number
of these orders throughout Italy, but the
present one in Florence is the only one
that remains. The exact number OF
members is Tot given, but it is undoubt-
edly very large. The civil authorities
grant them every indulgence and the
church recognizes in them an important
branch of charitable work. In times OF
widespread plaques and enidemics they
are invaluable in their services and many
deeds of heroic self denial and mercy are
recorded in the private annals of the cit
liens.
The Misericordia will always remain 6
feature in the history of Florence and il
is safe to say that should it's ancient in.
situations be lost amid the changes oil
modern civilization, this one will still
stand for the reverential admiration oil
future generations.

1t is interesting to note how punctually
the sparrows and purple fnches announce
the spring. With almanac precision they
arrive the first of March, though it be III

tints, but the blue-bird brings bit of

is THE SUN BLUE :?

The st. James Gazette is devoting a
portion of its space to the presentation of
proof that the sun is not blue. 1t cites
the experiment performed by Professor
Langley OF this country, in the theatre Of
the Royal Institute year ago, to es-
tablish the natural blueness of the sun,
and recltes his argument. 1t is the theory
of this distinguished astronomer that the
earth's atmosphere cuts off large proper
ton of the blue rays by absorption, II. an
observer could get beyond the atmos-
phere he would behold blue sun, as rays
of this color would predominant.
In recent lecture in the same theatre
Captain Abney repeated the experiment
of Professor Langley, adopting his figures
with mathematical accuracy, but dispens-
ing with his paper disks, which this lee
turer held vitiated the result; and he
showed that the color of the sun was not
blue, but very nearly that of the white
light to be seen at high elevations in a
clear dust-free atmosphere. When the
spectra OF sunlight on the Alps and that
imagined by Mr.. Langley we're compared
side by side they were almost identical.
Tie principle was illustrated by fine ex-
pertinent, which Captain Abney called an
artificial sunset. Through solution OF
hyposulphite of soda a clear circle of
electric light was thrown on the screen.
The image was like the sun at noon.
Then few drops of hydrochloric acid
were added to the solution. This pro-
duced turbid mixture, and, as the tur-
pidity or muddiness increased, first the
violet, then the blue, the green and the
yellow rays were successfully cut off; the
image varying with every graduation, until
finally there was the dull red OF the sun
setting in wintry or smoky sky. The
observation caused by London fog, when
every light seems dull red at short
distance, is due to the same cause. Incl
dentally Captain Abney mentioned that
many artists whom he and General Fest.
ing had examined in their laboratory did
not see more than three-fourths of the
red light; but this imperfect perception
did not interfere with their use of the
colors, for they applied their pigments in
the same proportion as they saw them in
nature. 1t now remains for Professor
Langley to show that Captain Abney is
color blind; or else that the Captain, by
mangling his experiment, has cut the blue
rays out of his blue sun.

A QUIET STREAM.

a quiet stream
Flowed through a level meadow-all day long
Its voice was heard in murmurOus melody,
That half a whisper seemed, and half song
Yet no one paused to hear its harmony,
Or mark the brightness of its sunny CLEAN.
But where its course
Was half arrested by the rugged stone
1t sweled and bubbled till with newborn power
1t leaped the barrier, all its weakness gone
Its spray ascending in a silvery shower,
Its onward way pursued with added force.
Its beauty then
The artist praised, the poet sang, until
Came many to admire the pretty scene,
Half marveling at the strength of such a ril-
A silver ribbon parting banks of green,
Swift as an arrow, deeper than their ken.
So we in life,
Unconscious of our strength may pass along,
Our silent efforts vain-our labor lost
Content to rest unnoticed by the throng,
Whose paths in life our daily course have
crossed,
Till trouble comes to rouse us into strife.
Then we possess
Through labor, power-from pain and weari-
ness
We learn the lesson that will make us strong,
Endow us with capacity to bless
The world will listen to the stirring song,
Born of a soul replete with earnestness!
